At the entrance of the underground prison.
General Wang had already retracted the flames on his forehead.
The metal door of the underground prison was blown open by him.
The layers of defensive formations were erased with a single formation plate.
General Wang stepped into the darkness and headed deeper into the underground.
The 1st floor of the underground prison.
All the monsters had already been slaughtered.
The corpses of the monsters were transported to an unknown location by the formation.
General Wang carefully observed the empty 1st floor of the underground prison and scowled.
Who exactly was that person?
Which floor did he kill his way to?
— — regardless of what happens, I can't afford to anger that person, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
General Wang took a deep breath and stood on the formation leading to the 2nd floor.
This was where the Desolate monsters were kept, so even he could only teleport himself down one floor at a time.
The 2nd floor.
The 3rd floor.
…
All the way to the 13th floor.
General Wang looked down at the flowing blood below with a hint of fear in his eyes.
The flow of blood was very calm, meaning that starting from the next floor, nothing had been destroyed.
That's good.
General Wang heaved a long sigh of relief.
"Wielder of the Door of Desolation fragment, descendant of the Desolate Guardian, ruler of the Southern Ancient lands — — -"
General Wang's voice stopped.
He slowly turned around and looked at the wall.
The two surviving horned humanoid monsters on the wall didn't dare to move at all.
But on the wall across from them, on top of a small hole in the wall, there was a grey, slimy mollusk.
Although this insect was only the size of a fingernail, how did it survive here? And how did it escape the detection of a Divinity?
General Wang went silent briefly before releasing his inner sight.
Bam!
As soon as the slimy thing was touched by General Wang's inner sight, it instantly died.
General Wang was a bit surprised.
Regardless of whether this insect was originally here or was purposely placed here, it was already dead.
Ignoring this small matter, General Wang continued his previous topic.
"Did what happened here disturb your rest?" he asked.
A while later.
A hoarse voice came from deep within the blood: 「 I'm very safe here, if you bugs didn't disturb this king's rest, I would be able to rest even better 」
General Wang was surprised.
「 Bugs … 」 he muttered.
「 That's right 」 the hoarse voice mocked him, 「 what a pitiful bug, daring to call itself a Divinity 」
General Wang's face gradually became gloomy.
He slowly said, "There is a strange thing. Their master ordered them to guard the house well, but in the end, they disobeyed their master's will and began to eat their master's descendants. What do you think will happen to them if their master found out about this evil behavior?"
「 We don't have a master 」 the roaring voice became angry: 「 Humanity hasn't returned from the Reality Gate for over a hundred million years, and do you want to become my food as well? 」
Seeing that he had successfully enraged the other party, General Wang revealed a gleeful smile.
He calmly replied: "No, of course not, I will only continue to help you eat your master's descendants — — as long as you do not forget our agreement."
The hoarse voice was silent for a while before it said in confusion, "I really don't understand. You guys who call yourselves Gods, why do you want to imitate the form of humans? Why are you so obsessed with that door? "
Its voice suddenly carried a hint of sinister laughter. "Could it be to avoid us?"
General Wang's gaze became extremely gloomy: "We've traveled to every world and reached the ends of the world, but we've never been able to find a new shore, so we need you to follow our agreement and reopen the Desolate Gate so that we can go in and see what's inside"
The hoarse voice mocked: 「 Fools! Even our former master had already disappeared from that door for over a hundred million years, and stinky bugs like you still dare to peek into that place? 」
General Wang insisted: "We have an agreement between us! If we go against our agreement, even your king wouldn't be able to get away scot-free! "
「 Hmph, once you've truly completed your task according to our agreement, we will naturally let you in 」
The hoarse voice scoffed.
General Wang raised his voice: "We've already done it, you're currently devouring humanity without restraint!"
The hoarse voice shouted: 「 No, there's still the [Order] — — the most terrifying thing isn't the descendants of humanity, but the [Order] passed down from generation to generation! Once humanity has an [Order], they will become incredibly powerful. You still haven't dealt with this crucial matter!
「 That's not a problem, Southern Ancient Lord, we have a way to deal with the [Order]! 」
"What way?"
「 We will calculate the power required for each [Order] and release the [Demon King Order] first 」
「 The [Demon King Order] … 」
「 Indeed, this is the most terrifying [Order], it enslaves all living beings and devours countless humans until it finally gives birth to a true Demon King 」
「 We cannot allow them to give birth to a Demon King! 」
「 Of course not, we will become the Gods of humanity, while the evil and terror of the [Demon King Order] will prove to humanity that the [Order] is something they should abandon! 」
General Wang excitedly continued: 「 As long as you can help us and guarantee that the first [Order] to awaken will be the [Demon King Order], there won't be any issues. Even if we don't do anything, humanity will still fear this most extreme [Order] — — not to mention, us Divinities will lead humanity to fight against the [Demon King Order]! 」
The hoarse voice fell silent.
After a while, it tiredly spoke: 「 Let's hope so. Go back first, I need to report to father and discuss how to make the [Demon King Order] be the first to awaken 」
General Wang muttered: 「 Once we can do that, you will have to reconstruct that door and let us in to take a look 」
「 Of course, as long as you can stop humanity from combining with the [Order] 」 the hoarse voice replied.
Hearing that, General Wang slowly smiled.
「 Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be on my way 」 he said.
「 Go, don't come back if there's nothing else 」 the hoarse voice said.
General Wang turned around, about to fly up.
He suddenly stopped and asked: "That person — — did you eat him?"
「 What? 」 the hoarse voice asked in irritation.
Without waiting for General Wang to say anything else, it answered: 「 Yes, I ate one of my subordinates, you don't need to worry about such a small matter 」
General Wang hesitated for a bit, but still insisted on asking: 「 I'm not talking about your subordinate, I'm talking about the human who came down just now 」
The hoarse voice asked: 「 He just came up from here, did you not kill him? 」
General Wang's expression changed.
He disappeared from this place.
But very quickly, he reappeared, grabbing the slimy bug on the wall in his hand.
The bug was already dead, as soon as he grabbed it, it turned into a blob of disgusting mucus.
General Wang froze.
「 It's not this thing … 」
He mused: 「 I came down too quickly just now … so I didn't take a good look at each floor … but I couldn't just ignore a single human … 」
As he spoke, a vast gray flame soared from his body.
「 You think you can fool me? That's interesting 」
He disappeared from this floor again.
…
At another location.
Outside the slaughterhouse.
In a dense thicket.
Gu Qing Shan was hiding here.
Indeed, when the Divinity entered the underground prison floor by floor, he had actually turned into an ant, hiding in a gap between the bars of the 5th floor.
As soon as the Divinity teleported down from the 5th floor, Gu Qing Shan immediately left this place.
When he came out from the underground prison, the entire slaughterhouse was in chaos.
Manager Li and a few of his subordinates were all dead.
The enforcer cultivators were all rushing towards the manager's room.
Gu Qing Shan silently made his way through the crowd, chose a secluded exit, and silently left.
He didn't go too far.
— — -if I'm too far away, that slug won't work.
He recalled the advice of the old man from the Spire Keeper Association.
「 This is a good thing, much more powerful than normal Eavesdropping Bugs 」
「 Normal Eavesdropping Bugs are easy to discover, and the angered person who's being eavesdropped would usually stomp the bug to death 」
「 And this slug might look alive, but it's actually just a small bionic mechanism 」
「 Only when someone stomps it to death would its eavesdropping function be activated 」
— — -this slug was given to him by the old man from the Spire Keeper Association when he went to Aboul.
And now it finally came in handy.
He silently listened to the conversation within the slug.
It wasn't until the two extremely powerful entities began to negotiate about his life and death that he took out a formation plate.
The formation plate was activated.
Gu Qing Shan disappeared.
Several thousand miles away, in an endless barren mountain range.
Gu Qing Shan's figure appeared on top of an open hill.
This was where he faced his Tribulation.
Ever since the Drifting Sand world, he had consciously set up a teleportation formation to escape.
And now, the formation had once again brought him far away from the danger of death.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and sighed.
Searching for information about Divinities and Desolate monsters was an extremely dangerous thing to do.
